Sing...

My Thought for this Day.......Each morning you awaken to a world that has revolved while you slept. Joyous things have occurred. Tragedies have happened. People have laughed and cried and fought, lost, or won. This morning I awakened to a son on his way to Urgent Care with the upper part of his body covered in ugly welts and hives, a nephew-in-law slowly making his way down a hospital hallway after a motorcycle wreck, and the news of the passing of a sweet friend's sister-in-law. Each happening a deeper degree of rawness, seriousness. So my Thought is trite and repetitive. You never know life's circumstances. But let's delve deeper, we aren't supposed to know. That is not our job, our task, our lesson plan. Our duty is to, in every situation, seek not the meaning, that is fruitless, but seek the humanness. No one is above life. No one gets a free pass. No one walks unscathed. And when you stand in your bright, shiny, sparkling light, realize that you are one breath away from darkness. I'm not being maudlin; I'm being realistic. You are a bird with a song. Sing it.
